[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 7588, member: 705"]Well do you want proofs or not...its up to you ;) Well proof coins have a mirror look and one look at a coin will tell you if its a proof or not....take some time and look at a coin shop at some proof coins. Every now and then somebody will break a proof set open and put the coins in CIR. Well that depends on what coins you are going to collect and the grades....if its franklin half dollars I have proof that I have gotten for $2.00 but the 1950 is 200.00 and up. What I have done is a lot of sets in circulated grade and some BU and now I'm going back and doing some MS-6_ --PF__ Hope this is some help---I know that others will help too :D Speedy[/QUOTE]
